    This is great news. It should reduce the heavy traffic on Bouquet Cyn. Planners don’t consider traffic congestion when OKing new tracts, EIRs
    etc..

  2. Seamus MacNickell says:

    This does NOT look like a small landslide.

    This looks more clearly like an earthquake fault creep displacement.

    Has USGS or CalTech EQ staff been here to assess the potential for future major earthquake activity?
